Malikha Lodge
 The Lodge
The beautiful lodge is the perfect introduction and final
farewell to Northern Kachin State. Perched high above the Nam Lang River with
glorious views of mountains and rice terraces, Malikha Lodge has been designed
by world famous architect Jean Michel Gathy of Aman Resorts fame to create a
feeling of luxury and seclusion in this wilderness setting. The resort's manicured lawns and exotic gardens are carefully
landscaped to merge with pockets of old growth bamboo and jungle. Traditional
style bungalows have been carefully placed to recreate a sense of idyllic
village life in this open garden paradise.
Location
Malikha Lodge is situated in Northern Kachin State, Myanmar’s
greenest and most remote state. Access to our lodge is a fifteen-minute drive
from the small frontier town of Putao. Formally known as Fort Hertz, Putao was
one of the British Empire's most remote outposts. During the Second World War,
even the Japanese were unable to conquer this remote and isolated area. Today,
Putao remains completely cut off from the outside world by millions of acres of
subtropical rainforest and jagged peaks. The only reliable access is by flight
into the Putao airstrip during the cool dry season from October to April. Home
to a myriad of different cultures and religions, its reputation as a land of old
style adventure and discovery is rivaled only by the warmness of its welcome.
Activities
Daytime activities range from short jungle treks to river
diving, mountain biking, scenic raft trips and kayaking. For the more
adventurous, Ayeyarwaddy Expeditions offers a range of multiday rafting and
trekking excursions. Ayeyarwaddy Expeditions

Accomodations
The focal point of Malikha Lodge is the main lodge, where
guests come to gather around two blazing log fires for drinks, dining or just
pure relaxation.Each bungalow is a spacious living area centered upon an
enormous handcrafted teak bathtub. Placed discreetly amongst towering bamboo
trees, one has the feeling of total privacy and relaxation. A custom made
fireplace next to the bath completes the sense of indulgence and luxury, and
also provides warmth for the private daybeds outside, where views of distant
mountains can be enjoyed through the foliage.
Malikha Lodge offers a variety of all-inclusive packages ex
Putao. Prices are per person on a twin sharing basis and are inclusive of all
transfers, full board accommodation and house drinks, as well as all guided
